Loose steering... unstable
I have replaced the passanger front hub new lower ball joints and when i took the lower arms off the bushing did'nt look that bad. I also had a 4 wheel alignment and still she want to wander i'll be driving straight and for no reason she'll go eithe left or right seems very unstable and no bump steer with the new parts .... dam...lol. I have been doing a little reading and dose this look to be a rack and pinion issue..how do i check it its not leaking but the wear must be inside... and help would be great ...and she has the stock size tires...

It could be that the inner tie rods are worn and loose. These are under the boots on the end of the rack. Assumingthe outer tie rods are okay.
It could also be an alignment issue if the shop was not careful and you wound up with a toe out condition. It will make the car darty and very very unstable over bumps or ona wet roads with puddles (been there).
